1) Ans: The two proximate level reasons for hunting mostly orb-web building spiders. 1)The structure of the web: There is a chance of getting stuck in cob-web building spiders rather than orb-web building spiders. This is because orb-web building spider builds 2D structure of web and cob-web building spider builds 3D structure of web. It is easy for a mud-dauber wasp to hunt orb-web building spider as its web is not so complicated in order to get stuck in it. Where as cob-web building spiders web(3D) is very complicated when compared to the orb-web building spiders web. So, they prefer orb-web building spiders rather than cob-web building spiders and get killed by them. 2)The Chemical present on spiders: The wasps may hunt mostly on the…
As Bananans was going into the house she got a great idea. She searched far and wide for the very venmous Funnel Web Spider. She placed the spider in Jack's bed, and as soon as he went to sleep the spider would bite him and he would have a very painful death. Later that day, Bananas told the kids it was bedtime and she followed Jack into his room so she could witness the entertaining death of Jack. Just as Jack was entering his bed the spider started crawling up his arm. Once it made it to his…
Similarly, Molina and Valentin struggle to accept one another as Molina says, “Look, it’s just the way I am, I’m easily hurt by some things.” As the feminine character Molina is not afraid of communicating his feelings towards Valentin whom, simply answers, “But don’t act like that, you’re oversensitive...” By belittling Molina’s feelings and saying he is “oversensitive” he is declaring his superiority whilst highlighting his masculinity. The article “Kiss of the Spider Woman and the Web of…
Northern Kentucky Although Spiders provide a plethora of benefits to our community, they continue to be one of the most feared insects not only in the Northern Kentuckian area, but also throughout the world. In this project, I will hopefully come to a conclusion on why people generally fear spiders, which is an actual diagnosis called Arachnophobia. Spiders are in the arachnid class, which is the reason the condition is called Arachnophobia. Arachnophobia is usually defined as an abnormal or…
Inquiry Paper “Fiction is like a spider's web, attached ever so lightly perhaps, but still attached to life at all four corners.” ~ Virginia Woolf. For a spider the web is the key part of her existence, spun through individual silk, piece by piece it eventually connects together to form a web that provides life for the spider, a new start. Though weaved with care it does have its limitations in strength, weak and miniature bugs will get caught, but the powerful and big will destroy the web.…
To many people, spiders are terrifying. In fact, behind death and public speaking, arachnophobia, the fear of spiders, haunts fifty percent of women and sixteen percent of men (The Wall Street Journal). However, these usually small arachnids are highly underestimated in their capabilities. They are clever, industrious, and inventive, giving them the ability to thrive in many environments. Spiders spin their webs with silk, the strongest known natural fiber. They also have eight eyes, eight long…
Spiders are the most atrocious creatures on the planet. The amount of times I came face to face with a spider is unbelievable. I swear, my life flashes before my eyes every time. There was one time in particular where I thought I was going to die; I remember it like it was yesterday. I was surrounded by nothing. It smelled like freshly mowed grass and it felt as hot as an oven. It was the summer of 2014 and my best friend, Lauren, had moved in for a few months. Lauren would visit her…
After hours of work, we finally got enough spider webs to combine together to make a giant ball to throw at the spiders. "Who wants to throw it?" I asked. "I do," Fritz replied. He took the web, and with one big mighty fearless throw, it hit the spiders perfectly as they rolled to the corner. With enough space to walk out of the room, we quickly ran to the door and went on to the challenge that awaited us. HISS! CHOMP! Snakes filled the room. One snake in particular, wrapped around my leg…
She turns her head to the door. “Oh my G-nkahfvusbfkbidnkfov.” she tries to say but wasn’t able to for the attack of the creepy-crawlies and they were crawling over her. We were cheering loudly like we were at a football game. Soon, the spiders and worms cleared up so we could see the woman, looking more horrible than ever. “You came back!” we shouted. We see Arachni crawling up to us. He crawls up and unlocks the cage. “Get our parents too!” I say happily. Arachni and friends go to make a web…
Lavinia let out a screech that would have put goosebumps on any person that would have heard it. She flipped on the lights, turned toward the man that had cleared his throat, and began to back away from him towards the back door. “It’s no use trying to run through the back door. I barred it shut from the outside. You really do need to learn to lock the windows of your home, you made it much too easy for me to get inside.” Lavinia immediately recognized the man standing in her home, even though…
